Ok, here me out.
What a lot of people are having trouble with is the split between Metro and the desktop. So I've been thinking about it, and really... do we need the desktop?
Have the taskbar on the bottom, and then, on top of that, Metro Start, the same as how it is in W8 now. Use tiles on Start to access everything; apps (Metro and legacy), files, explorer. All open apps and files and folders can appear on the taskbar as they do now. Bring back the Start Button and make it a "return to Metro Start" button (kind of a hybrid between the W7 Start button, the keyboard Windows key in W8, and the taskbar's desktop button. Allow windows to be opened over Metro Start. Find a way to make Windows more intuitive and easier to use for tablet users while keeping functionality.
How does that sound?
